Deployment Capabilities

An integrated operator platform for equipment that needs a protected touch display, x86 computing and configurable machine interfaces.

Combined HMI and compute

The display, touch interface and computer are supplied as one platform for machine and process applications.

Machine-specific connectivity

Serial, CAN/DIO, PoE and wireless options can be selected around the connected equipment.

Industrial power and mounting

Wide-voltage input, panel mounting and front protection support installation in machine and control-panel environments.

Modular product configuration

The host and display architecture supports different screen and I/O combinations within the documented series.

Technical Features

Key features cover operator interaction, industrial I/O, front protection, mounting and thermal design.

Industrial touch interface

Projected-capacitive touch and front IP65 protection support machine and process interfaces. The combination supports frequent operator interaction in dusty or splash-prone work areas.

Modular construction

The host and display are connected through a modular architecture for easier service and product variation. Separating the compute and display assemblies can simplify servicing and product-family variation.

Configurable I/O

Additional serial, CAN/DIO or PoE options adapt the panel to equipment requirements. Integrated options may limit the need for separate gateways, switches or I/O modules in some equipment configurations.

Wide-voltage power

12–36 VDC input with protection functions suits cabinet and machine power systems. The protected input is compatible with common industrial DC supplies and fluctuating machine power.

Surface options

Anti-glare and anti-fingerprint coatings improve readability and maintainability. These treatments reduce reflections and visible fingerprints on frequently used touch surfaces.

Remote power

Remote switching supports embedded installation and service access. The computer can be started or shut down when its physical power button is not readily accessible.

Applications

Typical deployment scenarios for this platform include:

Machine HMI

Provide touch-based machine operation, recipes, alarms and status visualisation. Alder Lake-U processing gives headroom for richer HMI and local analytics.

Process equipment

Integrate the panel into packaging, environmental, energy or production systems. Configurable serial, CAN/DIO and PoE options reduce the need for separate interface hardware.

Vision workcells

Combine a local operator display with camera and network connectivity for inspection stations. Optional PoE can simplify power and data wiring for network cameras.

Building automation

Use the wide-voltage panel PC as a supervisory interface for distributed building systems. Touch operation supports local control and maintenance access.

Test systems

Integrate display, Windows compute and instrument connectivity into fixtures and benches. The modular construction can simplify servicing the display or compute section.

Renewable energy

Deploy as a local HMI for inverters, storage, charging or distributed power equipment. The 12–36 VDC input suits common industrial DC supplies.
